Default Faulty Electric Receptacle

The ground protected receptacle over the sink in my Road Trek 190 Popular isn't working. I wasn't able to test or reset the original receptacle so I replaced the whole unit but it still isn't working.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

John

John - your RT is a 2005, right?

Have you reset the circuit breakers?

John, I have the same RT year...and have had the same problem. Check under the rear seating where the inverter is; you will see the light is red, push on the button and it will turn to green or yellow. It happens to us when we try and use a toaster and coffee pot at the same time. One of the things my wife came up with is keeping a small nite light in the outlets - if they are working you can see instantly. Also, remember there is a reset on the GFI Outlet down by the double-doors. Safe travels, Ron

Thank you both very much. Resetting the reset button on the inverter did the trick and we're back in business. I would never have considered that myself and much appreciate the help. I suspect the small space heater I plugged in was what set it off.
